MATRIX REPATTERNING
The Tensegrity Matrix forms a continuous fabric, extending to every tissue of the body -- muscle, ligament, fascia, bone -- literally every cell, including the cytoplasm and the DNA. It provides for stability, flexibility and mobility and the means to yield to external and internal forces. The molecular elements of the matrix carry excess positive and negative charges, capable of generating piezoelectric fields when compressed or stretched. Thus, the matrix not only holds things in place but also serves as a solid state biocircuit with semiconductor capabilities.
This allows the matrix to form a direct and continuous informational, vibrational and energetic continuum within the body. A dynamic balance is continually maintained within this extensive system, to allow for adaptation to the demands of different activities, and to the restrictions which may be imposed by traumatic lesions within these tissues.
The Matrix's functional aspects mediate all vital functions; nutritional uptake, cellular growth, immune response, genetic expression, energy production, enzymatic activity, protein synthesis, pH balance and waste removal. Any abnormality within it will affect the entire body. The apparent fibrosis of muscle and fascia may thus be seen as an altered electro-mechanical relationship at the molecular level.
The tensegrity model, which was first described by Buckminster Fuller as an architectural principle, has now been verified as the basis of all organic life by several studies. It explains how forces are transmitted throughout the body and how injuries and other influences are actually stored within the molecular structure. It extends our understanding of structural dysfunction beyond the level of joint, muscle and ligament, to include all of the tissues of the body, as potential sources of dysfunction.
Symptoms, especially in chronic conditions, are often the result of abnormal strain within the body in response to a primary lesion. The primary source of the strain pattern is usually asymptomatic. This can be compared to a person wearing a cast on their ankle. They usually feel no pain in the immobilized joint but often experience pain and discomfort in the knee, hip, lower back or neck as these structures must alter their normal range-of-motion to compensate for the loss of mobility imposed by the cast. Diagnosis and treatment, based on the area of symptoms, is often frustrating and fruitless, since it acts only on the peripheral effects of the primary condition.
Matrix Repatterning™ is a manual approach, which addresses primary sources of tension in the connective tissue-fascial system in an efficient and effective manner. Treatment is gentle and painless, and can often result in global reorganization and postural stabilization, encouraging the body towards normal, pain-free function.
